CentralNic have actually been working with this system for around 12 months
now, and it's pretty cool. It works with a lot more browsers than the VGRS
one, and requires no client or server-side plugins or patches :)
It's really rather good at providing a seamless end-to-end IDN solution for
web browsers; granted there are problems with Squid and such, but any IDN
solution will have problems with things which filter.
Personally I think it's a good transition for IDNs - but then again I've
said that before ;)
